The School Day

Children at Cayley attend 6.5 hours daily, and 32.5 hours in a full week.

The school gates open at 08:30 for Nursery children only. Doors open for children from Reception to Year 6 at 08:40 and all children are expected to go straight up to class ready for their learning. All corridors are supervised by staff on duty at this time to ensure smooth transitions. Registration takes place at 08:50, this is also when the school gates and all doors are closed.

Any children that arrive late must go via the school office to make sure they are marked in. If your child is going to be late or absent for any reason, please call the school office by 08:30.
